Parking brake
To apply the parking brake, depress the
parking brake pedal fully and firmly
downward while applying the service
brake.
To release the parking brake, pull the
parking brake release lever while apply-
ing the service brake. The pedal will auto-
matically extend to the fully released
position. If the parking brake pedal does
not release or does not release all the
way, have the system checked by an
authorized Kia dealer.
CAUTION
Driving with the parking brake
applied will cause excessive brake
pad and brake rotor wear.
WARNING - Parking brake
• To prevent unintentional move-
ment when stopped and leaving
the vehicle, do not use the
gearshift lever in place of the
parking brake. Set the parking
brake AND make sure the
gearshift lever is securely posi-
tioned in P (Park) for automatic
transaxle equipped vehicles.
• Never allow a person who is unfa-
miliar with the vehicle or children
to touch the parking brake. If the
parking brake is released unin-
tentionally, serious injury may
occur. 1VQA3030 1VQA3031
